Command & Conquer games 75% off on Steam this weekend

by Alexander Sliwinski on Feb 25th 2011 10:00PM

Now that Victory Games and a new Command and Conquer are official, it's time to be reminded of the series' decline over the years. Good thing Steam is there with deep discounts this weekend on the freefalling franchise.

If you're looking for "serious" RTSing, check out Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars ($7.50). If you'd prefer something a little bit more quirky, go for Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 ($5). What about Command & Conquer 4? No such thing exists, sorry. But if it did, it would cost $5 right now. Just saying.

Public Service Announcement:

C+C 4 is terrible.

You have been warned.

@bigwhiteyeti

/cancels his torrent.

@bigwhiteyeti

I probably should have put a /joking on that...

@bigwhiteyeti Even for $5?

@RKN
ESPECIALLY FOR FREE!

I haven't played Command & Conquer since, well, Command & Conquer, the first one. Most of the reviews I've read about C&C4 can be pretty much summed up with "it's not real C&C because it's changed so much"; that being said, will I like C&C4 on its own merits?

@touch

I didn't.

Besides the fact that C&C4 is terrible, is there any other reason why the third game cost more than the 4th?

@Rentaro

C&C3 still holds up perfect today. Its classic C&C formula. The graphics are just fine for a RTS as well, its just an overall great game and worthy of costing more unlike supposedly horrible C&C4.

probably the best news ive heard.

i loved cnc3: red alert. its my favorite in the series.

im just wondering why they wont release a sequel to the series. i mean... just how much of kane's overrated bald head can we see anyway?

C&C4 isn't bad for the multiplayer if you prefer something fast paced.

Having said that, the SP campaign is just quite possibly the worst piece of shit ever, anywhere.

Why no C+C generals!? :(

@BookishOwl Yes, that was my favorite one

@BookishOwl

Atomic Artillery snuck up and took it out :(

@BookishOwl

My favorite too. Wished there was a sequel.

There's a Red Alert 3? I don't pay much attention to PC games and after the disasterpiece that is C&C4 I lost all interest in RTS games. Yep, I'm in.

@Electrium RA3 came out 2 years before CnC4...

Very good news. I own a lot of them, but for that price, it will be nice to rebuy them and integrate them into my Steam account so I don't have to keep track of the discs.

Screw the new stuff just go back and play C&C1 and tiberian sun for free from ea. Those are probably the best in the series besides everyones favorite RA2. Like some people once C&C hit 3D I just lost the love for it, even trying to see if it would cone back after each new game. Thankfully I didn't play C&C4 which I heard was more of a slap in the face than anything else

Not cool. I just spent $15.00 for Red Alert 3 on direct2drive a few days ago... and Red Alert 3 sucks... and even more uncool, Steam doesn't have the Mac versions of these games... still not impressed with Steam's Mac Support.

@TheMCFacemanBandcampcom

A new Dev is what killed the series.

Heil Westwood!
